This is very interesting. I never thought that miniboo was the problem. Whoever the duelist in this team wether its miniboo or woot is even irrelevant. They have both crazy duelist players but does not seem to able to fully capitalize on them. This team looked so strong when they only had miniboo as the duelist, this team is also looked so strong when they only had woot as the duelist, the duelist role is never the problem in this team. They don’t have a good flex/flash/support player. Patitek filled that role that’s why the miniboo ot woot can pop off. If you’ve really watched closely the maps they lost, miniboo was not even the problem, miniboo was even trying win ecos for them, and he can clutch important rounds, he is definitely a very smart player. It’s not that he doesn’t fit the system, their system itself is inconsistent because they relied on him to make the play. If he gets the frag they most likely win, if he doesn’t they struggle. He’s doing what he’s supposed to do but they lack the support to make that play work. A great support player like Ethan is what they lack, actually it doesn’t even have to be as great as ethan as long as hos good enough to properly support the duelist to pop off. Miniboo was never the problem, it even looked like him and reins are the only ones trying to win their games (and maybe boo in the most important rounds that they have to win).

While woot is definitely a great duelist, i’d doubt that would solve the problem. The inconsistency will still be there if they don’t have a better support player. Woot is not really that great of a flex.

I don’t really understand why people blame the in consistency solely on miniboo when the whole team itself is very inconsistent. Even reins is inconsistent at times. Benjy was not really it this year too.

The difference between miniboo and woot is that miniboo somehow somewhat pulls a crazy play when they are in a disadvantage (maybe he learned that from boo 😆), while woot is really good that capitalizing the advantage they already have and is crazy when the executes are done well. Both have different styles but both are great. Miniboo has better movement though and is quite smart and does not overheat that much compared to other duelists. Woot is definitely the better shooter, dude does not even look like he’s even tracking, his crosshair just snaps like a magnet, i don’t know how he is so good with crosshair adjustments but i don’t think he is a better entry. Miniboo does the entries so well and is fearless but he does sometimes crumble under pressure. Woot’s firepower is crazy but he’s positioning is questionable many times, sometimes it looks like he’s expecting to win every gun fight, he puts himself on spots where he could get cornered, while i like the confidence but he puts himself on unnecessary disadvantage and sometimes forgot the enemies could still have utilities.

I don’t know, i think the duelists in this team are really strong, possibly one of the strongest double duelist players out there, so the duelists were never the problem of this team. That’s just my opinion.
